Voyage


Hamlet described eternity as "the undiscovered country".  Some day, each of us will set sail for those shores.
The day which we fear as our last is but the birthday of eternity.
- Seneca
For now, we stand on these shores, watching the boats weigh anchor.
When you are born, you cry, and the world rejoices.
When you die, the world cries, and you rejoice.
- Buddhist saying
